Method, system and program product for providing selective enhanced privacy and control features to one or more portions of an electronic message

A system comprising a processor and a computer readable memory device coupled to the processor, said memory device containing program code configured to be executed by the processor to implement a method for sending electronic messages, said method comprising:

• said processor creating an electronic message on a sender device for distribution of data to a user at a recipient device, said electronic message comprising a data structure consisting of said data or pointing to said data;
• said processor receiving a selection of one or more pre-defined selective enhanced privacy and control features for one or more portions of said data;
• said processor embedding a command syntax in the electronic message such that said embedded command syntax is coupled to said data structure in the electronic message, said command syntax coded to only describe and trigger the selected one or more pre-defined selective enhanced privacy and control features for said data, wherein the command syntax includes one or more commands which upon being executed at the recipient device prevent the user at the recipient device who receives the electronic message from printing the received electronic message, storing the received electronic message, copying the received electronic message, forwarding the received electronic message, and blind carbon copying the received electronic message;
• and
• said processor transmitting, to said one or more intended recipients using a transmission medium, said electronic message that comprises the command syntax coupled to said data structure.

A computer program product, comprising a computer readable physically tangible storage device having program code stored therein, said computer readable program code containing instructions configured to be executed by a processor of a computer system to implement a method for sending electronic messages, said method comprising:

• said processor creating an electronic message on a sender device for distribution of data to a user at a recipient device, said electronic message comprising a data structure consisting of said data or pointing to said data;
• said processor receiving a selection of one or more pre-defined selective enhanced privacy and control features for one or more portions of said data;
• said processor embedding a command syntax in the electronic message such that said embedded command syntax is coupled to said data structure in the electronic message, said command coded to only describe and trigger the selected one or more pre-defined selective enhanced privacy and control features for said data, wherein the command syntax includes one or more commands which upon being executed at the recipient device prevent the user at the recipient device who receives the electronic message from printing the received electronic message, storing the received electronic message, copying the received electronic message, forwarding the received electronic message, and blind carbon copying the received electronic message;
• and
• said processor transmitting, to said one or more intended recipients using a transmission medium, said electronic message that comprises the command syntax coupled to said data structure.

A process for deploying computing infrastructure comprising integrating computer-readable code into a computer system, wherein said code in combination with said computer system is capable of performing a method for sending electronic messages, said method comprising:

• creating, by a processor of the computer system, an electronic message on a sender device for distribution of data to a user at a recipient device, said electronic message comprising a data structure consisting of said data or pointing to said data;
• said processor receiving a selection of one or more pre-defined selective enhanced privacy and control features for one or more portions of said data;
• said processor embedding a command syntax in the electronic message such that said embedded command syntax is coupled to said data structure in the electronic message, said command syntax consisting of a first tag, a text string, and a second tag such that the text string is disposed between the first tag and the second tag, wherein the text string is coded to describe and trigger the selected one or more pre-defined selective enhanced privacy and control features for said data, wherein the command syntax includes one or more commands which upon being executed at the recipient device prevent the user at the recipient device who receives the electronic message from printing the received electronic message, storing the received electronic message, copying the received electronic message, forwarding the received electronic message, and blind carbon copying the received electronic message;
• and
• said processor transmitting, to said one or more intended recipients using a transmission medium, said electronic message that comprises the command syntax coupled to said data structure.

A communication method for sending electronic messages, said method comprising:

• creating, by a processor of a computer system, an electronic message on a sender device for distribution of data to a user at a recipient device, said electronic message comprising a data structure consisting of said data or pointing to said data;
• said processor receiving a selection of one or more pre-defined selective enhanced privacy and control features for one or more portions of said data;
• said processor embedding a command syntax in the electronic message such that said embedded command syntax is coupled to said data structure in the electronic message, said command syntax coded to describe and trigger the selected one or more pre-defined selective enhanced privacy and control features for said data, wherein the command syntax includes one or more commands which upon being executed at the recipient device prevent the user at the recipient device who receives the electronic message from printing the received electronic message, storing the received electronic message, copying the received electronic message, forwarding the received electronic message, and blind carbon copying the received electronic message;
• and
• said processor transmitting, to said user at the recipient device using a transmission medium, said electronic message that comprises the command syntax coupled to said data structure, wherein the command syntax embedded in the electronic message transmitted to the user at the recipient device does not identify any intended recipient of said one or more intended recipients.
